It looks a little like Easter

I decorated for Easter the other day and I went through all my decorations to weed out things I didn't need anymore. Here's a little sample.

Hope Chest Update

As I was Spring cleaning our bedroom I thought the cedar chest could use some new updated hardware instead of the old granny hardware that it had (you can see them on the floor). The new hardware has a little leaf pattern and it matches the button latch better than the old ones.

Happy Rudolph Day!

I had the whole day off yesterday so I decided to take the opportunity to Spring clean the master bedroom. It takes forever, but it is so fresh and dust free now. All the major cleaning is done. Yay! For Rudolph day I ordered a couple of gifts and they are on their way. I ordered Christmas in Connecticut to watch because it was only $5.50 and I've never seen it. I look forward to seeing it when it arrives. Not sure what I will do for Rudolph prep this month because everyone's birthdays are near Christmas for me so it doesn't help much to do Christmas/birthday shopping together. Oh well.

New Curtains

I got some new curtains for the Summer for a couple of rooms. The first one is in the downstairs bathroom. The middle of the daisies are a button. So cute!




These are my new living room curtains. I wish they were a little lighter in color for the Summer, but this is the only blue they had. I need a swag for the front windows because the windows are so long and it looks funny with just a valance.




Yesterday, the weather was so nice (near 70) so I wanted to clean at least some of the windows and change out the curtains because I was sick of snowflakes and snowmen in the bathrooms, and how can there be snowflakes and snowmen when it's almost 70 degrees? I have about half the windows and curtains left to clean when the weather is nice again. I've been Spring cleaning and all I have left is the upstairs hallway/stairwell and our bedroom. I should be done in the next few weeks. I've been going through everything and throwing stuff away and giving stuff away. It will make it easier to clean next time.

New Craft Projects

Over the weekend, my Aunt came by with some stuff for me to freecycle and she also brought a bunch of cross stitch books for me to borrow. I started to do a nice Summer one with a quilt on a porch swing, but I stopped Sunday becuase I figured I could get this whole bunny done. I did. I had to change a color in it because it was too dark and didn't look right. I think it came out really cute and it's perfect for Easter. Some of the flowers got cut off in this frame, but I already had the frame so it works.
